    A Word in Your Shell Like!

    Guy this is going to sound strange coming from me. Can anyone tell me where I can buy the plastic mouthpieces you use on a corn cob pipe. They are a yellowish colored plastic and about 1 1/2 inches long. I need them for a friend who is working on a project. Any thoughts let me know please gents.

    Willard Burp & The Devils Arse!

    The auto correct program on my lap top can throw up some very amusing 'corrections' some of which you cannot have failed to notice. Wyatt Earp got reconfigured as Willard Burp. My favorite pipe, a very old Devils Anse kept getting reformatted into 'Devil Arse' which on the first go around was...

    Show Us Your Unused Antique 'Cutty' Pipes!

    I just couldn't resist. I just picked up another unsmoked late Austrian meerschaum 'cutty' that has never been smoked before, sort of a virgin pipe if you like! It got me thinking that among the multitude of 'cutty' pipes there must be quite a few unsmoked examples from the 19th century kicking...

    Quick Look at CigarBid from The Pipe Perspective

    Someone kindly posted about this web site so I thought I would have a look and see what was available. Firstly I must point out that I am not a cigar smoker other than the odd Cuban consumed when I lived in London years ago. If cigars are your thing then this site certainly has a lot of eye...

    Awesome New Emoji's!

    I have just explored the new Emoji section. I see they have installed one for Captain Black Grape and Royal Yuck - ?. This is brilliant and allows me to be so much more expressive in my postings. Thank you Pipes Magazine!

    Do You Think This Might Get Reintroduced to the U.S Market?

    I was looking at older tobacco blends when I came across this gem - somehow I just don't see Pipes & Cigars reviving this blend!

    Tuesdays Meerschaum Cutty PAD Attack!

    You can tell I am bored! I just went and knocked down another meerschaum 'cutty' on that celebrated auction site Oi Vay so that makes two for the week. I won't see these until I get back up North but hey its something to look forward too!

    Yet Another Meerschaum PAD!

    Well I was killing time whilst I am stuck here in Florida and I added yet another 6 1/2 meerschaum 'cutty' pipe courtesy of Ebay. I won't see it until I get back up North in early November since it will be waiting for me with the other pipe I picked up last month but I suppose it is some...

    What are You Wearing as a Halloween Costume This Year?

    What are you are wearing for a halloween costume this year not that I agree with the demonic undertones - I prefer to think of it terms of the ancient Roman celebration.

    I've Got a New Toy - Meerschaum 'Cutty' PAD!

    I have been very well behaved recently. I made it through the Ohio pipe show without buying anything other than few rounds of beers. Both Weezel and myself have both been on our best behavior by not trying to re-use the same cardboard box sending stuff to each other - the current record was 8...

    Putting Stuff in Jars!

    Just a quick post out of curiosity. When you jar your tobacco do you sterilize your new Mason jars in boiling water?

    Philtpads and Coloring Your Antique Meerschaum!

    I thought I would share here the results of using Philtpads in an antique meerschaum. I have commented many times before on the many items I have found in the bottom of an antique meerschaum 'cutty' pipe that served as the 'Coloring Bowl' of 100+ years ago. The principle being that the oils and...

    Do You Smoke Your Dottles?

    Occasionally I save up my dottles in the corner of the ash tray and smoke them the next day as the first bowl of the morning. Its quite a life affirming nicotine hit with the morning expresso. Anyone else tried this out?

    Philtpads - Chalk Pipe Filters

    These are a must have for any of you meerschaum nuts out there. I picked up a couple of packs at the Newark (NY) Pipe Show and I have to say these are almost direct clones of the Victorian originals. They are in essence a half ball composed of chalk with veins that drops neatly into the bottom...

    A Few Thoughts on Coniston Cut Plug

    Everyone knows my taste in tobacco has not really evolved much since the mid 19th century! That being said every now and again people kindly send me new things to try out in the hope they can wean me off my usual diet of plug and twist. Recently a very dear friend of mine sent me several jars of...

    F.F. Adams Peerless Tobacco

    Anyone ever smoked this stuff? Anyone even remember this stuff? It shows up on Ebay all the time so I am curious to see when it went out of circulation. What say the group?

    Whats The Oldest Sealed Tin of Tobacco You Have Ever Smoked?

    I am cheating here as I have supplied quite a few ancient tins to forum members over the years who have generously spread them around but I have often wondered about the ones we have never heard about. Outside of the famous 1930s Capstan tin from our dear friend in California who kindly shared...
